*OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT RAMAPHOSA*.



Thank you for your SWIFT acknowledgement that the ONLY SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN WAY to FLATTEN CURVE OF DAILY RISING NEW INFECTIONS & SPREAD OF CORONA VIRUS IS BY *LOCKDOWNS*.


However, Mr President, it is my humble view, that YOUR ADMINISTRATION IS SETTING YOU UP FOR A DISASTROUS FAILURE. YOU ARE ENTANGLED IN A COMEDY OF ERRORS.


I have said this Repeatedly since you have been President of ANC & RSA. I shall say it again. MR PRESIDENT. FIRE YOUR ADVISORS & GET COMPETENT ADVISORS. ALSO DISBAND THAT NATIONAL COMMAND TEAM WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT. *IT IS USELESS IF THE UNEMPLOYED & THE POOR WERE NOT PART OF THEIR PLAN DURING 21 DAYS OF NATIONAL LOCKDOWN*.



There is NO COUNTRY in this world that has Implemented LOCKDOWNS *WITHOUT making provision for, or catering for the UNEMPLOYED & POOR*. No President is RECKLESS to give a nod to things like that. They can call me an Alarmist again for all I care. IT IS TOO RECKLESS & UNIMAGINABLY INSENSITIVE. IF THE PRESIDENT ANNOUNCED LOCKDOWN *WITHOUT MAKING PROVISION FOR THE UNEMPLOYED AND POOR*. THEN YOU HAVE ERRED GRAVELY MR PRESIDENT. I AM IN POSSESSION OF A COPY OF YOUR STATEMENT. BUT DID NOT SEE YOUR TV PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT. YOUR STATEMENT MAKES NO MENTION OF THE UNEMPLOYED & THE POOR. YOU ARE STOKING CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE & CIVIL WAR IN SA MR PRESIDENT.


15 million SAfricans are Unemployed. 80% are Youth. 50% of 58 million SAfricans are declared living under Poverty Bracket of less than $1 per day. Ramaphosa Administration cannot ignore such things. USA Government planned #LOCKDOWNS 2 months ahead. Americans (Rich or Poor), are happily on Lockdowns "Holiday". We have been moaning about lack of Financial Aid for the Crisis. Mboweni must announce the Country's ECONOMIC STIMULUS RELIEF\PLAN. Which must take care of concerns about the UNEMPLOYED & THE POOR, amongst other things.


You need no rocket science to know that the UNEMPLOYED & the POOR, spend every day of their lives, *HUSTLING* to make ends meet and put food on their tables. Whatever ways to Hustle. Whatever food it will be for them to eat. *During SA 21 Days Lockdown, they shall NOT be able to Hustle, in their own small or big ways. And they can't provide for themselves*. WHAT MUST THEY DO TO CONTINUE THEIR LIVES WITHOUT THE PRIVILEGE OF THE HAVES, THE RICH & THE EMPLOYED SAFRICANS MR PRESIDENT? PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION?


Kindly do something URGENT to rectify this Disastrous Error. Check what the other countries have done to implement Lockdowns. USA provides the BEST Benchmark.
